Defining requirements at the start of a project is an essential step in developing a new product.
We recently came across a very good article from the Silicon Valley Product Group about writing a good Product Requirements Specification. The process can be summarised as follows:
- Do Your Homework
- Define the Product’s Purpose
- Define the User Profiles, Goals and Tasks
- Define your Product Principles
- Prototype and Test the Product Concept
- Identify and Question Your Assumptions
- Write It Down
- Prioritise
- Test Completeness
- Sign Off PRS
